I'm 6'2 220lb 24 years old

BMR = 2200

I am doing Insanity + Weights

2200x1.5 = 3300

This is the diet I have come up with trying to get as close as possible to a 50/30/20 split (P/C/F) which I understand is good for cutting.

I don't like brown rice or sweet potatoes so that's the reason for all the bread. Also I work at Subway so I get a free 6" every day that I work.

I know that 3 whey shakes is a bit much, but honestly this is a ton of food and i'm still kind of under eating for cutting.

Meal #1
Whey Protein
Banana
Whole Wheat Bun
Ground Turkey

Meal #2
6" Subway Club Dbl Meat
V8 juice

Meal #3
6oz Tilapia
Whey Protein


Meal #4
Whey Protein (Post Work Out)
Banana

Meal #5
Whole Wheat Bun
Ground Turkey
V8 juice


2279 Calories
192 Carbs
68 Fats
308 Protein

If i'm hungry (Which I doubt I will be) Then I may add like a protein bar or a banana.. Ok any advice/replies will be appreciated.

I don't care if you think my diet is "boring". All I care about is if this will work for cutting and getting those abs to show.

    3 shakes are to much?? I love protein shakes haha

    For your whey protein are you taking them with water? or Milk? Milk will add cals so take that into consideration unless you already did haha

    I like your diet although i will say i would only eat fish 3 times a week due to the high mercury content and all. Where are your healthy fats coming from? I chose to get mine from all natural peanut butter so i can get some protein in there as well.
